b) Can't we hardcode the installation directory? Hummmmm. Not in
XEmacs, probably, since this is most easy to do at configure time. Not
at XEmacs-package install time. Something like
-------------------
\DeclareOption*
   {\InputIfFileExists{@TEXINSTALLDIR@pr\CurrentOption.def}{}{\OptionNotUsed}}
-------------------

a) How about fiddling with TEXINPUTS only if our preview.sty is to be
loaded?
